About Me:
I'm 29 years old and have finally found that switch in my head that changed my mentality from "diet and exercise" to "this is my new healthy life".

I've yo-yo dieted since puberty, but I've been on this particular journey since January 2nd, 2009. I started with a first goal of 50lbs, I'm 6lbs away from that goal. I've started running, and I completed my first 5k on Thanksgiving Day!

I also LOVE to cook and spend countless hours in the kitchen revamping recipes.




Plan of Choice:
High Fiber, Weight Watchers
Website/Blog:
http://unlikelysuccessstory.blogspot.com
Workout Philosophy:
I'm a walk-a-holic, I'm a gym rat ALL the way, I'm a Running Fanatic

Snap, Crackle, Pop, Ouch!

On Sunday I started to notice that my knees were hurting whenever I would stand up, sit down, squat down or go up and down stairs. Standing, sitting and walking felt fine, but the transition was painful. Yesterday, I woke up and did 30 Day Shred Level 2, pushed through the pain and then it was so painful that stairs almost brought me to tears. I spent a good chunk of last night like this

Meatless Monday - Broccoli & Ginger Tofu Stir-Fry


I had such a good experience the first time I used Tofu for Meatless Monday, I decided to try it again! I found this recipe in the Weight Watchers Fall 2009 20 minute Recipes magazine. I have modified it slightly so only be 2 servings (instead of 4), I served with rice instead of pasta and I only used broccoli instead of a stir-fry vegetable mix.

Eventful Saturday!


First off, I did GREAT at the movies last night! I snuck in two 100 Calorie bags of popcorn (one for me, one for Kelly) and a bottle of Diet Peach Snapple. Kelly snuck in some “fun size” (aka – evil size) chocolate candy!

Are you ready for some football?


Weigh-in this morning: 166.2lbs +2.8lbs from last week. Of course, last week I had an uncharacteristically big loss (-3.5lbs) and I know I made terrible food choices… Continue

Nice job with the OP weekend! I knew you could do it! Your meals sound good - especially the lunch today with Tuna tostada - yum! How was the movie? I see the previews all the time. I love Amada Seyfried. Love her in Big Love and Mama Mia. We got about 4 inches of snow today - very wet and messy. I think I am going to have a tread mill run tomorrow and not 8 miles. Oh well.

I thought about that as I was writing it - I figured you would stick your tongue out at me. I could send you some stuff from there...I know it is not the same. We don't have a Whole Foods here though...I would go insane. I have only been one time but I literally spent hours wandering around the store - it is amazing. If it helps I stick my tongue out at you every time you make or eat something loaded with veggies. He He He

Thanks Lovey. I even had a beer when my dad stopped by unexpectedly. I just gave up 2 points of my dinner. Some days it all falls into place! I am going to do it again tomorrow!

Thanks for the puzzle idea. I've actually been thinking about cross stitching since I used to do that and I think it will keep my hands busy and my mind from thinking about food. Plus, I could give away the finished products!

Yes I got the CD this summer before I went to their show in August. I actually really like it a lot. My very favorite song and my ring tone for my phone is "You and Me". Amazing song. I imagine Dave singing it to me. LOL! There are a couple of songs I don't care for but overall it is a great CD. I had several lawn seat shows that are quite foggy to me too!

Reason #598 why I think you are the coolest chick ever...DMB is MY all time favorite band in the whole wide world. I have been to 23 shows - even one when I was 9 months pregnant! Glad to hear you are having another GREAT day. XOXOXO

I would say keep icing and definitely get new shoes. If you have the same problems after the shoes I would try to see the doctor to be on the safe side. There could be some strengthening exercises to help your knees. Go easy on the squats - especial…

All RIGHT!! Whoo-hoo! ( I was NOT a good girl!) My favorite commercial? The Betty White/ Snickers Bar one. I don't think the commercials were at the top of their game like they usually are.

Great job on the stairs!!! :) My husband and I always eat in front of the TV. I'm not sure we've ever ate a meal at our pub table. Usually we work different hours so we eat alone anyway. That is a great goal though! :)

That is breathtaking. I think we all get in this stubborn moods...I know I do, but I always feel better afterward. It's just hard remembering that feeling when we really don't want to get out there and just do it. :)

Congrats on doing such a GREAT job. You should be very proud of your entire weekend. This will help you have an OUTSTANDING week. Glad to hear Chaser is doing better.

It's okay that it's up because that isn't going to derail me from continuing with a healthier lifestyle. But living healthier isn't going to deter me from living life and having a good time either. Sounds like you found the balance. :) I love the r…

I did my first day of Level 2 of 30DS today and it hurts to pick up my coffee mug. My shoulders are in pain, but it's a good pain. :)

Bummer the movie sucked! I hope that you have a great Sunday. On my way to the treadmill - yuck!

So glad I didn't pay to go see Dear John yesterday then. Tanks for the Whip It review. I'll have to add it to the netflix queue!
